Mexican partner to marry Romanian living in UK

Hello everybody!
Thank you for this support!

I am a professional working in the UK for 2 years and I have pre-settled status.
My fiancee is Mexican. We visited each other a few times and we want to get married soon. We don't have 2 years of living together.

I'm unsure as to how to proceed? My fiancee to come to the UK as a tourist, or to first apply for a marriage/spouse visa?

Is there such a marriage/fiancee visa for partners of EU nationals living in the UK with pre-settled status?
With this, I was told that the Home Office wouldn't be involved - but I couldn't find such a visa on gov UK.

Or is it easier to marry in a different country? Romania/Denmark (Las Vegas of weddings in the EU) and then apply directly to EU Settlement Scheme?

No, there isn't.
Countries are closing borders - how are you going to get married?

What reason do you have to believe that that would be granted if the intention is to live together in the UK after marriage?

Marriage visitor visa is just for partners just travelling in the UK and not intending to remain there. So it doesn't apply to us.

We have postponed our marriage given the current crisis until things became more clear.
Would lean to marrying her in Mexico civically then applying for EU settlement scheme. If after crisis time frame and Brexit is still on our side......
